The Ohio State University Buckeyes men's basketball team rebounded big time on Sunday with a very convincing win over a very good Indiana team. There is nothing like home cooking and the Buckeyes served up a heaping helping of it Sunday to revenge an earlier loss to Indiana and coming off a loss to Illinois and Brandon Paul.
The Buckeyes were led by Lenzelle Smith, Jr. and his 28 points on offense and a stifling defense led by Aaron Craft and the entire team. The final score was 80-63 but the game wasn't that close.
The Buckeyes have looked less than impressive in several of their recent outings since their dismantling of Duke. With this win, maybe they are back on track and proving they are one of the top teams in the country. This week with the win over Indiana, they are now ranked 6th. This is higher than I thought it would be after the loss to Illinois. There next two opponents are Nebraska and Penn State before entering a tough stretch of top opponents. The next four games will be against Michigan in Columbus, At Wisconsin, and against Purdue and Michigan State in Columbus.
If the Buckeyes continue to play like they did on Sunday, I am confident they will win these games. This is not an unbiased posting, as I am a big Ohio State fan and I like this team. Go Bucks!
